App called photo resizer. It's free and works great.

I know somebody needs parts... Hit me up!

Those 12pts will strip every time! If you loosen the subframe it will drop down enough to get a 6pt socket on them. Hopefully you replaced the nuts? The inserts feel like night and day!

Bump it up, let's move these parts! PM me if you have an offer!

The pill increases boost, doesn't lower it. So if it was missing your boost would be low. I am guessing as long as the ebcs is functional and the line from the turbo T to the bcs is good, you either have a bad actuator (can apply pressure to verify function, or a stuck wastegate arm.)

 

You can rule out the electronics by capping the line off that goes to the ebcs (this would run all of the pressure from the turbo to the actuator, should be about 8 psi if the actuator or wastegate is functional)

Not really, I already have the group N trans mount and Perrin pitch stop though. I think the entire group N setup would probably be great. Lots of people install the mounts incorrectly and increase binding (NVH)

You have to remove the pitch stop and make sure the engine is settled before you tighten the lower nuts on the subframe.

 

Do you notice any sizable increases in NVH with them?

Installed the new group N engine mounts. What a difference! The old mounts were original and had 185k on them.

 

Very easy to do, would definitely recommend. Now I need to stop being lazy and install the tmic water misters...

When you start braking the entire suspension shifts from the force. I would definitely accelerate your plan to change the lower control arms. They will move as soon as you touch the brake pedal and change the front geometry (toe,camber and caster) good luck

"Control arm bushings are terrible and ball joint might be as well and I'm wondering how likely that is."

 

Don't the control arm bushings and ball joints keep the wheels on the car? I would say that could definitely be an issue with your high speed vibration. Good thing mevotech makes some inexpensive replacements. That being said, you should have a trained technician look at your car if you are not interested in replacing everything, one component at a time.

Good luck with the issue, keep us updated.

I would get one. That being said your tuner should have recommended one as well. The factory BCS is craptastic!

That's cold my guy, you sent me pics and even showed me the spoiler in the box. This is what you sent:

 

"Here is more photos. I have a few people interested in the this. So I will check out shipping options for all you guys. And whoever is first will get it. Just to give you a heads up."

 

Dirty.

Installed the differential and carrier bushing inserts. HUGE difference, although the car just hit 185k today lol. Had to drop the subframe down substantially to get a good 6 point socket and breaker bar on the nuts. Wish the superpro subframe bushings were here, I could have installed at the same time! I have a perrin pitch stop and group N trans mount already. Still need to install the group N motor mounts(waiting on the nuts to arrive smdh.)Be safe all!

PM'd about spoiler

The center differential is the viscous clutch. It is in the tailshaft of the transmission.

Updated parts list, all parts that were bought were shipped out.

Exhausts run 3" until the split to the mufflers. Then it is around 2"-2.5". The invidia 3" is listed as 76mm (3")/60mm (2.35") after the split. Good luck!

Just get a tune. If all they do is plug the OBD2 in, you are set.

I am doing something similar, but I have a sedan so I grabbed a wagon bottle for cheap (has both pumps) and will be using that, a button and a digital timer board to run it 6-10 secs on press. Wiring is all there so all I had to do was grab the wire from the column. On suggestion from a few friends, picked up numerous misting nozzles to try out. If the misting nozzles don't pan out, will grab a couple of the sti nozzles. Quick questions,

1) Is that a GS splitter?

2) Did you have to use a check valve?

 

Looks good

The trick is to rotate it 180* to clear the frame rail and then rotate it back when you are clear of the rail.

A/C pulley sold.

Completely normal sir. Be safe.

Shameless plug

I have a Dayco metal pulley for sale (BNIB) in my FS thread. It uses an NTN bearing which is Japanese as well.

Replied

Up, lowered ALL the prices.

To the top, lots of these parts are new, OBO for everything.
